House Sparrow - Passer domesticus
Mourning Dove - Zenaida macroura
House Finch - Carpodacus mexicanus
Eurasian Collared Dove - Streptopelia decaocto
Inca Dove - Columbina inca
European Starling - Sturnus vulgaris
Great-tailed Grackle - Quiscalus mexicanus
Curve-billed Thrasher - Toxostoma curvirostre
Additionally, Anna's Hummingbird - Calypte anna have been coming to my backyard hummingbird feeder.
Today I decided to start a pictorial record of each species, with photos of both sexes where easily identifiable; here are the ones I've taken so far.
House Sparrow: female on left, male on right
Mourning Doves - sex not easily determined |
House Finch; male |
Anna's Hummingbirds; male with back turned and female sideview |
By far the most common bird is the House Finch, followed by the House Sparrow, then the Eurasian Collared Dove, which is ironic, since the latter two species are non-native invaders.
